Thanks Holly,
     Your feedback is valuable. This is a new issue for CASA importuvfits to interpret our
FITS standard streamer. This seems to be some data issue in this specific data set 180727_15:56:02,
which escaped from the data check routine. I will look into it and add a patch to the software.

    Hi Jun-Hui,
    your feedback link doesn't work for me so I'll just reply tot his email.
    I tried running it on rtdc9 using 180727_15:56:02 and got the following error..

    I'll keep playing!

        Following the message of requesting SMA science staff for
        trying out SMA SWARM data pipeline to CASA circulated by Holly
        a few weeks ago and talking to a few SMA scientists,
        we think that it would be good to have a meeting to introduce more details about the new SMA
        wideband pipeline to CASA. We have reserved  M240 between 3pm-4pm tomorrow
        (Wednesday) to initiate this activity.

        The software has been set up on RTDC system and was initially tested on the
        server rtdc9. Here are the links for more information:
        https://www.cfa.harvard.edu/~jzhao/SMA-CASA/swarm2casa.html
        https://www.cfa.harvard.edu/~jzhao/SMA-CASA/swarm2casaRelease.html

        We will setup the new pipeline on the Hilo system and ask Geoff for testing it out.
